Because I find this to be SO MUCH easier than just blinking in and out without letting anyone know.
Okay. So, I now have absent days. Besides my working days, which are usually not long (3-5 hour shifts) and I'm able to check the forum afterwards.
I am now going to be gone, at my regular house with no Internet, from Sunday to Tuesday morning because of band- we leave Sunday night, stay the whole day Monday (Alfie's clarinet lesson & night practice) and leave Tuesday morning (after my mellophone lesson). We will also be gone Thursday nights for more night practice and may or may not stay the night depending on what's happening the next day.
We have NO Internet at my regular house right now. Alfie has her phone so she can keep in check, but the only other source is my mom's phone, which is kind of difficult to work. So on those dates, skip me in RP's and such.
When band camp dates come up, I'll let you know on those since we may be gone longer.
Thanks guys!

Okay, here it is. The big one. On Sunday night, Alfie and I are going to be going down to our regular house and staying there until either Friday night or Saturday morning- it depends on what my mom and my sisters want to do. This is because we will be in band camp at our high school, training to march in parades and working on our halftime field show for football games. We will have no Internet at our regular house except for both my mom and Alfie's cell phones. So I will only be able to check in at night, but I don't like to do it regularly because it eats up the phone battery and the loading for regular web pages is really, really slow and REALLY laggy and difficult. As such, I try to avoid it but usually end up doing it anyway. So, skip me in RP's all next week and don't expect much activity Thanks guys!! ~Paws (P.S. If any of you start making American Pie references, I'll have your head XD seriously, I've been getting that line since the beginning of July.)

Ah, marching band! Fun stuff. My friends used to go to band camps annually and they always tell me they're a lot of fun (though, I wouldn't know, I'm an orcha-dork ;p). I hope it's a really nice and fun experience for you and your sister! "Now the half-time air was sweet perfume While the sergeants played a marching tune..." ♪ ♫ -pro face-

Wait, So is it, you come on the Internet at your Band Camp or is it, you'll be at Band Camp, so you won't be able to come on? O.O
Also, don't fret, I never seen American Pie, so I don't get the reference. ^^;
Still, I hope you have Fun at Camp, Paws & Alfie. *Hugs* X3 Know anything you'll be playing, yet? *Hugs* X3

WOAH! You nearly passed out!? O.O How did that happen? Did you like, almost run out of air or something?
Must be a complex song, if you nearly faint because of it. ^^; What song you doing?
Still, Thanks for the update, Alfie! ;3 Looking forward to hearing more from you. *Hugs* X3

Oh yeah I forgot!
There was this one time, at Band Camp, on Section Color day, the drum line went crazy and covered everyone in their color, purple. Then they won, went even more crazy and ripped all their shirts off.

Yeah, we're back. And it's been a decent week, I guess. I mean, each night had it's own advantage. Monday- Learned the basics, it was Twin Day. Tuesday- Hawaiian Day, started on song 2, then went to my friend's house at night to make T-Shirts for Section Color Day. Wednesday- Aka "Weiner Wednesday" (hot dog day) and International Day, had a panic attack and had to sit out while reviewing (but not as long as Alfie had to sit out), drew a picture for our drum majors and saw The Help afterwards. Thursday- Section Color Day, where we all got purpl'd, watched the drumline go crazy and win and rip their shirts off, and then went to our cousin's play half-asleep. Friday- Spirit Day, did what we had of the field show for an audience, and pretty much stayed up 'til after midnight. It was a good week

Reviving this old thing just to give some heads ups.
I have band practices and football games and such now.
Saturday, I'm probably not going to be on at all. I have a football game, with inspection at 11:00 a.m. EST and the game (it's an away game) starting at 1:00. This also includes a pregame show I'm marching in at 12:30.
After the game, which should end somewhere around 3:00, I'm going straight from the high school to another high school for a competition. We're typically a festivals band, so to go to a competition is a bit big for us.
We'll be at that competition until...say, 10:30 or so, and won't be leaving our school until somewhere around 11:30-midnight.
In addition to these, I've been having regular band practices (I had one tonight).
I have practice Monday and Thursday nights. Mondays I have it from 6:30 to 9:00, and Thursdays is from 6:00 to 9:00.
Just giving a heads-up!
